Monograph examines executive compensation, alignment

A new monograph from the AHA’s Center for Healthcare Governance and Sullivan, Cotter and Associates examines how hospital and health system boards can align executive compensation with the new health care paradigm. The publication reviews the changing role of incentive compensation as a tool to focus executive attention on the organization’s most important priorities, and how executive compensation committees can adopt best practices, align compensation with the changing environment, meet regulatory requirements, and select an effective peer group benchmarking methodology. The center is AHA’s resource for information, tools and counsel to promote excellence in health care governance.
